Seeing her intense reaction, Jin Suting no longer felt the urge to blame her. After all, she wasn't the real eldest daughter, and she had no idea what was going on after suddenly traveling through time. She would have to rely on Qin'er to understand everything.
"Alright, alright, stop making me kneel and get punished all the time. I'm not that cruel." Jin Suting helped Tan Er up, "Hurry up and get up."
Then she continued, "Also, don't call yourself a slave from now on. Look, we grew up together, right? We are good sisters! From now on, you are my good sister! I will protect you~"
A trace of surprise crossed Qin Er's calm face. Jin Suting smiled and said, "What's wrong? You don't want to?"
"No, no, slave...Qin'er is not unwilling." Qin'er waved her hands quickly.
"I know you find it strange that I have changed so much suddenly. In fact, I feel that I have lived a very miserable life in the past ten years. I was muddle-headed and good-for-nothing, relying on my father's love for me to act unscrupulously and unreasonably. After experiencing a life-and-death experience, although I have forgotten a lot of things, I have figured it out. I want to say goodbye to that arrogant and domineering eldest daughter of the general's mansion and start my life again." Jin Suting almost believed these sensational words herself. Qin'er, the naive little girl, was even more upset after hearing them. The young lady was finally going to start a new life.
Seeing Tan'er so moved, Jin Suting had achieved her desired effect. The best solution she could think of was to make those closest to her not suspect her drastic change of character and resolve to turn over a new leaf.
Uh...but why does this sentence sound so strange...
Jin Suting had had enough of the sentimental talk and decided to call it a day. Naturally, he asked about her irrevocable marriage.
"By the way, what is the background of the Yu family and what kind of person is their young master?" Jin Suting asked bluntly.
Tan'er quickly returned to her usual cold mood: "The Yu family and our general's mansion are old friends, and they are one of the top merchant families in Funing City. The Yu family has only one son, who just passed the imperial examination last year." Not only is he a scholar, he is also the dream of countless girls in Funing City. It is no exaggeration to describe him as handsome, suave, talented and well-read.
"Then why shouldn't I be willing to marry him?" Jin Suting was confused again.
"I was willing at first, but then..." Qin Er paused as if it was difficult to start.
Jin Suting's curiosity was completely piqued: "What happened next?"
"Mr. Yu is a disabled person." After saying this, Qin'er glanced at Jin Suting cautiously. Fortunately, she was not angry.
In the past, the eldest daughter was most fond of Master Yu, and Master Yu also had feelings for the daughter. The two were a match made in heaven, a man of talent and a woman of beauty. But ever since Master Yu suffered an accident and became disabled, his personality changed drastically, causing the daughter to dislike him and become even more reluctant to spend time with him. Their relationship gradually faded...
Later, the young lady even wanted to cancel the marriage, and refused to marry Master Yu. From then on, it was taboo to mention Master Yu in front of the young lady, especially the fact that he was disabled.
But now Jin Suting looked thoughtful. Although she didn't get angry immediately, Qin'er felt even more panicked.
Jin Suting was completely upset. Not only did she want me to get married, but she also wanted me to marry a disabled person. Well, she wasn't discriminating against people with disabilities. On the contrary, she felt that this Mr. Yu was truly pitiful. The main thing was, she didn't even know this Mr. Yu. Was she really going to marry him so hastily? She hadn't even been in a relationship in the 21st century!
"I'm only a teenager, and my dad is so eager to marry me off?" Jin Suting couldn't understand the ancients' thinking. Marrying before her organs had even fully developed? She didn't want to, even though she had lived for 23 years. But this body was only a teenager. No, no, she had to prevent this tragedy of underage marriage.
Unfortunately, her general father was so determined that she had to think of other ways.
Jin Suting calmed down and decided to go back to Funing City to meet Mr. Yu before making a decision and think about it in the long run.
——
Early the next morning, Jin Suting rushed to her father's tent, but there was no one there?
"One! Two! Three!" A series of deep and powerful voices came from the training ground. Oh my god, they are training. Her father is really hardworking!
"Dad!" Jin Suting ran to her father's side like a bird returning to its cage. The old general was brandishing his spear, and she didn't want to accidentally become a victim of his sword.
"Well, Dad, didn't we say we would go back to Funing today?" Jin Suting smiled flatteringly.
"Huh, what, have you figured it out? I told you that Yu Jingfeng was a good guy. How could the childhood sweetheart relationship between you two be severed so easily..."
"Dad! I already said I don't want to get married!" Jin Suting's ears were callused. This dad was like a dozen mothers.
"Hmph, I'm telling you, this matter is non-negotiable! Lao Yu and I have been friends for decades. We can't cancel the engagement just because his son got into trouble! How is this any different from being an unkind and unjust villain?" The old general lectured with a stern face.
Jin Suting also understood that the general father was really angry, and her tone softened immediately: "Oh~ Let's talk about it when we get back to Funing~ Daddy, are you willing to marry me off?"
"Why can't you bear to let me go? You cause trouble for me every day at home! I don't know how many messes your mother has cleaned up for you." The mother the old general was referring to was his second wife, Mrs. Lu. On the surface, the relationship between Mrs. Lu and Jin Suting was still harmonious.
Jin Ting knew that the original owner was an arrogant and domineering person. He must have done a lot of bad things in the past that the General's Mansion had to clean up. She had nothing to refute and listened obediently. Then, an idea suddenly struck her and she said, "It's not that I'm young and ignorant. Don't worry, Daddy. I will go see Master Yu when I get back and try to spend more time with him! But what if he doesn't like me anymore? I can't marry someone who doesn't love me."
The old general's eyes were as bright as copper bells. "How dare he! He has loved you the most since you were little. I have seen it all. Do you still remember the last time you were chased by a swarm of wasps because you were playing around, and it was that kid Yu Jingfeng who helped you block the stings and forced you to stay in bed for half a month. And..."
"Okay, okay, Dad, I remember, I remember." Jin Suting really didn't want to hear about the nostalgia, so she perfunctorily answered her father.
"You are just a little girl thinking about this!" The old general saw that his daughter's attitude had softened a little, and thought that such matters should not be pushed too hastily, so he did not continue.
"Then Dad, let's go back to Funing. I miss home." Jin Suting looked at her father with tears in her eyes.
"Okay, let's go back to Funing!" The old general immediately ordered to set off back to Funing.
The northwest is quite far from Funing. Even if the general's convoy gallops at full speed, it will take more than half a month.
Because he was returning to the court secretly, there were no assassins on the way.
